Silent Hill 2
Did the world need a Silent Hill 2 remake? The original is still worth playing and fans have made it easier than ever to experience that classic game in 2024. So I’m not sure we needed a remake. But I’m at least happy to report that the remake we got is a genuinely well-made, faithful adaptation of the OG classic developed by people who seem to not only love Silent Hill 2 but who also understand it and know when to tweak and when to stand back and let the original moments shine.
Remaking Silent Hill 2 always seemed like an impossible task, and I imagine it wasn’t easy, but Bloober Team has done it and in the process created one of the best scary games of 2024. – Zack Zwiezen
